Took the tire chains off the Cub last Friday. Got her washed and cleaned up (70+ degree F day). Here's the forecast for my weekend:

I put the tire chains back on after supper last evening. They're calling for 1"-3" accumulation today; up to 6" or 8" for Sunday. With so many other posts about planting, all I can do is dream about it. Ol' man winter has yet to loosen his icy grasp.

The daffodils have yet to come out of the frozen ground, they are usually blooming by now. And it is snowing again, about one inch has fallen in the past half hour. Oh well, at least it won't hang around for long now. Dang this global warming!

The calendar may say it's spring but with 4" of hard crusty snow on the ground from Tuesday's storm and another storm forecast for Monday into Tuesday next week, we won't be getting a jump on yard cleanup, etc.

We've had some major snow storms in CT in early April over the years. This year is setting up much the same. Easter dinner by the woodstove this year - me thinks!

"Spring" arrived yesterday with a high of 26. Last year was 84. Average is 47. So I guess you can say that for the past two years we have had above average temperatures. Now dosen't that make you feel warmer? Vern
